Wake up you sleepyheads........that’s not more fire works that’s the sound of erasers being cleaned.
Here I am, don’t know where the rest of the lollygaggers are.
So that's why it's so hard to quit smoking! Those philter cigarettes have a love portion in them. Now BeechNut Long Cut Chewing Tobacco isn't like that.....when that deep brown juice stains the beard on your chin and your girl friend kicks over that coffee can sitting on the floor of the pick-up...no wimpy love portion philter smoke will be enough.
Say! To all you real men out there, Do I spit out my chaw before I kiss the old woman or after? You see, she prefers Workman's Plug over the long cut.
Bill Clinton has morals a-kilter
Made Hillary fear he might jilt ‘er
But they have stayed “together”
Through all kinds of weather
Perhaps she has slipped him a philter
Yesterday, I was at a beach in the greater Boston area
when I saw my first “Hillary in 2016” T-shirt, worn by
a quintessential Massachusetts lib. I almost lost my lunch.
I’ve seen a bumper sticker or two here. It’s def nausea-inducing.
The philter in my AC is dusty and the whole house needs cleaning. Oh, wait a minute. That’s not the philter you want. ;)
We need to send a little philter to Congress and let them know that we REALLY don’t want Obamacare.
A smiling face! Good morning.
ohh. yuck. A+++
I may dislike some t-shirts, but to make it criminal? What happened to free speech? Good thing they came to their senses.
She must be using more than a philter to keep Bill married to her, such as it is. At least there are no more blue dress scandals, he’s keeping his extracurricular antics quiet. A+++
Loved that song. A+++
I’m describing real people I’ve known and holding back on the details but not the truth of it.
LOL, I liked it better when I thought they were all make-believe.
Nice going.
Another successful “blow stuff up but not your fingers” day. We had a shower about 7 pm but an otherwise nice day. If you like sticky.
Then there was Jimmy the janitor who was actually twins (I never learned his brother's name, it might have been Jimmy too or Jimmy Two). The game was up when one of the Jimmys died of an overdose on the job and the other Jimmy didn't know it and showed up for work.(surprise, surprise!)
Or Slobbering John. He wasss interesting....yes indeed.
As I said yesterday, there are beer cans, wine cooler bottles and other trash beside the main trail in the woods-I didn’t bring a trash bag this morning, but tomorrow morning I will...
Now that the scandals abound
Obama is no longer so sainted-
To some avid koolaid drinkers
His image has become tainted
He must be out of philters
For his worshippers to savor-
No matter what he offers them
They no longer like the flavor
They took bread and circuses,
But some are thinking twice-
A spy on the phone-or maybe a drone
Has become the asking price...
